psyche, reck's title is great quality and you know it.
I apologize if certain words are misspelled. My sister got too liberal with liquid drinks near the laptop.

~Current number of pre-ins for Fire vs Ice Mafia: 0/6~

You never know what you've got until it's gone.
You can call me Fei, Feirei, or Kari.

GD is my Wingman was the original title and the evolution of it is pretty perfect

"GD is my Wingman" was easily a 10/10 title given the story behind it and the fact that it's not a username or avatar pun or etc. On its own, I think "GD is my Best Man" isn't quite as good, but you can't take it on its own -- you have to look at the history behind it. Because it inherits and builds on the "GD is my Wingman" story, I think it's still a super good title.

Reck's title is the only one I know of that fits the standard Shea is espousing.

Right but all titles being as good as yours is an impossible standard.

What the flying fuck are you all expecting out of titles?

To be a perfect 2-3 word summary of an entire person's personality?

A good short novel?

A cure for cancer?

Most of the titles I've seen here are perfectly good.

Are you saying getting a title doesn't cure cancer?

Damnit, Skrew lied to me.


Nom tsq for Oldy McOldpants.


Seriously, he's been on site forever and he's always complaining about "them newfangled kids and their ideas". He's like the cranky grandpa in site-chat. (and yeah, I know he's not actually that old.) :P

If we are going that direction I'd say
Get off my lawn
or something like that, but not sure how I feel about this direction.

Maybe not, though.
